STORY OF A DISPATCH.

The Washington correspondents were greatly
troubled, during the war, by the censorship, and
they studied diligently how to circumvent it,
writes Ben: Perley Poor in the Boston Budget.
Just before the capture of Fort Fisher, and when
the news of it's fall would naturally have an
effect upon the stock market, one of the cores
pondents went to New York in order to be on

was signed Mary" This neat little arrange
ment completely deceived the censor when Fort
Fisher was captured, and the dispatch was
promptly sent.
The censor boarded at Willard's Hotel. There,
also boarded the wife and three children OF the
enterprising journalist. The censor was personal
" acquainted with the journalist and his family,
and on the day that he had passed the dispatch,
he approached the lady and asked: How is the
child?" What child; all my children are well,
replied she. "All well p said the censor. per
fectly we'll" Excuse me, madame" asked the
CENSOR "but is your first name Mary NO. sir,
if is not. and why do you ask p The censor
gave low whistle, and replied: "Oh, for no rea-
son in particular But you must have rea-
son for such question"

by her, he ventured to ask as to the young IN

Here was pretty kettle of fish. Who was

SEASIDE BATHING.
NJ y Times,


Probably it is useless to expect any radical
change in the method of bathing. The American
makes the motto of the Garter his law in social
matters and believes that the sexes can bathe
together in all innocene. He would scorn inc
seclusion granted by the English bathing ma
chine. In the East women go yelled to the bath.
Here they are not always clothed as much as
they might be, though it must be said that as a
rule. the costumes of the women are as modest
as the occasion will premit. But custom mas
grown up of lolling about, chatting and making
social hour of the bath, all in bathing costume,
which seems undigniied, not to say immodest-
The men are far worse offenders in this respect
than the women. 1t is quite proper for young
man. dressed in nothing but shortened bag OF
flannel, to sprawl on the sand while he chats
condescendingly with four or five admlrlng
Young women? We doubt if his grandfather
would have approved Of it. As for his grand
mother. we know perfectly well what she would
have said,

When father came home from his work at last
And was tired of my toy

And list to their loving talk,
While the crickets chirped, and the fireflies

Flew over the garden walk
And often would father tell the tale
OF the time, long years before,
When he led his bride to q happy home

And well i knew that never again

And too, am old and gray;

To PRESERVE GREEN CORN.-As this is the
roasting-ear season the following indian method
for preserving green corn on the cob may prove
interesting to some of our lady readers: When
your corn is in good eating condition, pluck the
ears and remove all the husks but the last layer
next the corn, being careful not to expose
any of the grains. Then tie string tightly
around the husk at the end where the silk is;
then take one half-gallon of clean hickory ash
es, put it in three or four gallons of water in a
deep vessel, and while it is boiling, dip the corn
into it slowly eight or ten times, holding by the
string you have tied around it. Hang away in
a dark, dry place. Whenever you want roasting
ears you will have them as fresh as when they
came from the stalk. The Indians preserve
hundreds of bushels in this way without single
failure HanoUer Spectator,

WHAT THE CROP LIAR IS DOING.
Phila6elDhid Times.

The peach liar has apparently emigrated from
Delaware to Florida and gone into the orange
business. Itisnow announced that the orange
crop will be only two-thirds of what it was las
year; which, when translated, means tina
oranges which were sold at ten cents for three
last winter will be marked up to five cents apiece
this winter. There is one consolation about thu
statements of crop liars. They never say tina
there will positively be no crop at all, else ther
might be no orders. The American fruit crol
liar does not lie as trade it lisa profession, anc
he makes science of it.
